That's right.

You did not use the correct format. The magic is not in the word "closes" but
in the way it is used:
Closes: #12345, #45566
works, and so does
Closes: bug#12345, bug#23456
The colon, the "#" and the lack of space between the "#" and the number
are important.
The format is precisely defined by the following Perl regexp:
/closes:\s*(?:bug)?\#\d+(?:,\s*(?:bug)?\#\d+)*/ig
